Steady Pacing Powers a Strong Half-Marathon Close Laila Gammelvind finished the half marathon in 1:50:02, an 8:23/mile average pace. Her race unfolded evenly across the field, with a brief dip near the midpoint a 9:25 split at mile 5 before she settled back into rhythm through the second half. She closed strongest of all, covering miles 12 and 13 in a combined 16:02, an 8:01/mile pace, the fastest sustained stretch of her race. Boulder sits above 5,000 feet, adding context to a pace that held largely between 8:05 and 8:30 for most of the distance. Her split through mile 9 to 10 would have carried her near the course's lululemon Power-Up Zone around mile 9.5, just before she found her closing gear en route to the finish on the Pearl Street Mall.
